4. Managing your cookie preferences<\/h4>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Upon your first visit to the Website, a cookie consent banner is displayed enabling you to accept all cookies, reject all non-essential cookies, or customize your choices per category. Strictly necessary cookies are always active because the Website cannot function properly without them, and are therefore exempt from the consent requirement under Article 5(3) of the E-Privacy Directive.<\/p>

You may review or change your consent at any time by clicking on the cookie preferences link available on the Website. Withdrawing your consent will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out prior to such withdrawal.<\/p>

In addition, most browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can usually find these options in the \u201cOptions\u201d or \u201cPreferences\u201d menu of your browser. Please note that disabling strictly necessary cookies through your browser settings may prevent parts of the Website from functioning correctly.<\/p>
